I was given an ARC in exxchange of a an honest review.Elena Martinez has hidden her eidetic memory all her life--or so she thinks. When powerful tech giant Aether Corporation selects her for a top-secret project, she can't say no. All she has to do is participate in a trip to the future to bring back data, and she'll be set for life.

Elena joins a team of four other teens with special skills, including Adam, a science prodigy with his own reason for being there. But when the time travelers arrive in the future, something goes wrong and they break the only rule they were given: do not look into their own fates.

Now they have twenty-four hours to get back to the present and find a way to stop a seemingly inevitable future from unfolding. With time running out and deadly secrets uncovered, Elena must use her eidetic memory, street smarts, and a growing trust in Adam to save her new friends and herself.As a fan of Back to the future series I had no doubt about requesting this book.And, lucky me, it was awesome.Well written,full of intrigue and twists this book kept me in my feet, waiting for the punch. I couldn't put it down, went to sleep at 3 am, so I could finish soon.I felt for them like if I was there too, running like a mouse in a labyrinth.I think the romantic part could be bigger, but that´s my only complain.Como uma fã da série De volta para o Futuro eu não pude deixar de solicitar esse livro no Netgalley. E, pra minha sorte, o livro foi maravilhoso.Bem escrito, cheio de intrigas e reviravoltas, me manteve sempre alerta, esperando pelo próximo susto. Não pude deixar de lado, fui dormir às3 da matina pra poder acabar logo.Eu sentia pelos personagens como se estivesse lá com eles, correndo como um ratinho de laboratório no labirinto.Eu acho que a parte romântica poderia ser maior, mas essa é minha única queixa.

I was given an ARC in exchange of an honest review.His name's on everyone's lips--sexy rocker Jack McCabe. His gritty New York City band is red hot, almost as hot as his fiery affair with photography student Lil Marchone, the girl from his past, now the woman he loves. The problem is, Lil's controlling ex wants her back. Rich, powerful, and ruthless, he'll stop at nothing--including murder--to get Jack out of her life. But Jack's a badass himself, always up for a fight. And with the stakes this high, he'll risk everything for Lil, even his band. Even his life.I loved this book from the very start, but it had some things that bothered me a lot.Like Lil leading Claude on. I don´t like cheaters, and she could have avoid a lot of trouble for her and Jack if she had put her big girl panties on. And her uncle Peter, I just wanted to get in the book and shake some sense into him.Jack was perfect, his alpha male behavior was hot without being idiotic like Claude´s. And the fact that he was so gifted and still being so humble. His chemistry with Lil was off-the-charts-hot.Eu amei este livro desde o começo, mas tem algumas coisas que me incomodaram bastante. Como a Lil enganando o Claude, odeio traidores e ela teria evitado muito problema se ela tivesse agido como uma pessoa responsável. E o tio Peter, eu só queria entrar no livro e sacudí-lo até ele entender as coisas como elas realmente eram.Jack é perfeito. Ele é alfa sem ser idiota como o Claude. E o fato de ele ser tão talentoso e ainda ser tão humilde. E a química entre ele e a Lil é suuuuuper quente.

I was given an ARC in exchange of an honest review.Here’s the same old “girl posing as a boy” story but with a rock-n-roll twist.

Remy Curran dreams of one day being in a band, except the group she wants to join refuses to hire a girl drummer. So, she auditions as a guy...and makes the cut.

Becoming “Sticks,” a member of Non-Castrato, isn’t quite what she dreamed it would be, though. She spends most of her time keeping up the subterfuge and learning how to walk, talk, act, and drink like a man.

But what’s even harder to deal with is acting oblivious when the band’s heartthrob lead singer, Asher Hart, treats her like one of the guys and not a woman. She never imagined he’d be so much more than a pretty face with a nice voice. But he’s better than perfect. He’s perfect for her.

When love and lies combine, Remy must keep up the act or lose everything. But who knew lying to reach one dream could prevent you from attaining an even bigger dream?Though the "girl posing as a boy" theme is old-fashioned I love this kind of story and this particular one was awesome.Well written, funny, steamy. I loved how Asher was super blasé about Remy "homossexuality".Jodi, Rmey´s best friend, is a riot, she hit on every pair of pants in front of her. She cracked me up. The scene where Asher´s bandmates leaves her bedroom and she says to Remy " They´re was fighting because of me, I taught them how to share" made me lmao.Embora o tema "garota fingindo que é garoto" esteja fora de moda, eu amo esse tipo de história. E essa, em particular, foi muito legal.Bem escrita, engraçada, quente. Eu amei como Asher agiu naturalmente sobre a " homossexualidade" da Remy.Jodi, a melhor amiga de Remy, é uma parada. Ela dá em cima de todo homem que ela acha bonito. Eu ri muito com as "artes" dela. A cena em que os companheiros de banda do Asher saem do quarto dela e ela fala pra Remy " Eles estavam brigando por minha causa, eu os ensinei a dividir" me fez rir demais.

I was given an ARC in exchange of an honest review.Recovering addict Nick Dorsey finds solace in his regimented life. That is until he meets Shyla Metha. Something about the shy Indian beauty who delivers take-out to his Greenwich Village loft inspires the reclusive writer. And when Shyla reveals her desire to write a book of her own, he agrees to help her. The tale of a young Indian girl growing up against a landscape of brutal choices isn’t Nick’s usual territory, but something about the story, and the beautiful storyteller, draws him in deep. Shyla is drawn to Nick, but she never imagines falling for him. Like Nick, Shyla hails from a village, too…a rural village in India. They have nothing in common, yet he makes her feel alive for the first time in her life. She is not ready for their journey to end, but the plans she’s made cannot be broken…not even by him. Can they find a way to rewrite the next chapter?As a fan of MK Schiller books I was thrilled when my request of this book was accepted. But this book exceeded any expectations I had about it. It's a gut-wrenching and heart-warming story that made me wept like a baby and feel my heart full of joy for Shyla and Nick.She is the definition of a bad-ass heroine. She went through hell and back and surpassed everything until she found her HEA.And Nick is like a balm for her broken soul. I can´t say much more without giving spoilers, but I strongly recommend you to prepare your heart to be taken to a world of sorrow but also of the most fundamental joy in the world.Como uma fã dos livros de MK Schiller eu fiquei muito emocionada quando minha solicitação desse livro foi aceita. Mas esse livro excedeu todas as expectativas que eu tinha sobre ele. É uma história angustiante e comovente que me fez chorar como um bebê e sentir meu coração encher de alegria por Shyla e Nick.Shyla é a definição da heroína bad-ass. Ela sofreu demais, muito mesmo, passou por coisas que ninguém deveria passar, mas encontrou forças para viver até o seu felizes para sempre.Nick é um bálsamo para a sua alma sofrida.Eu não posso dizer muito mais sem vazar spoilers. mas recomendo fortemente que você prepare seu coração para um mundo de tristeza mas também para a alegria mais fundamental do mundo.

Ronan made a promise to his best friend. He promised to take care of his sister, and then his friend died and he felt obligated to take care of her. But what he didn´t expected was her to start a relationship with her brother`s killer. And to makes him a ultimatum, forgive him or forget her.

Em was in an abusive relationship, and when she could see clearly what was going on, she ran from it right to Bear´s arms and that´s was the best thing that could ever happen.

This story was kind of slow at the beginning but after reach full throttle it was really good.

I loved Bear, he´s the ultimate guy, big and sweet. His relationship with Em is beautiful.

I was given an ARC in exchange of an honest review.I´m in a row of "meh" books. They're all books that could be awesome but turned out being mediocre when not downright ridiculous.I was completely annoyed with this book, the way the story was told, the characters, the plot itself.Everything seemed forced, even her relationship with her family.Gabriela had a crush on Landon since ever, and apparently he had one crush on her as well. But after that many years, he out of the blue, started to flirt with her. And her father was a sexist pig. Joey was ridiculous. And I think I´ll stop here.

I was given an ARC in exchange of a honest review.This book started well enough, and sometimes it was really good, but it mostly was "meh" and in the end was downright outrageous.Josie Savage is the daughter of a football star and when she starts in college she Runner Rarity, the backup QB and they hit it off but he has a girlfriend, a lunatic girlfriend.My first impression of Runner was that he was nice, but I thought he will cheat on his girlfriend, who he thought bad about her all the time. How she was nicer, less blond, less mean when they´re was in highschool.Josie left me confused about her personality, because she was a doormat to her parents, especially her father but she fought back other people.Actually, most of this book left me confused, it was irritating and gave me whiplash.Runner turned out being an Asshole with an capital A, and a cheater, with the "poor guy" complex. And Josie wasn´t so badass as I thought, hence she accept him and his assholery back.

I was given an ARC in exchange of an honest review.I requested this book at netgalley because I love books which the story are related to movie stars or something like it. But it didn't worked for me. I don´t know what was the real problem, certainly someone else can related to it, but I couldn't. It missed somethingEu solicitei esse livro no netgalley, pq adoro livros com estrelas de cinema e coisas do tipo, mas não gostei. Não sei especificar qual foi realmente o problemas, mas não gostei. Faltou algo.

I was given an ARC in exchange of an honest review.June Eyermann is back home after her first as a freshman in college. When she ´s home she start to feel like the pressure to know what to do with her future and as a way to escape she accept a position at the library as a volunteer.There she finds Everett Rockford the hero to her love story.Actually this book was kind of a let down. It did not focused on the romance part, they barely talk until way beyond half of the book. June spends more time comparing him to her books boyfriends and when they really started a relationship it felt rushed and it was already at the end of the book.June Eyermann está de volta em casa após o primeiro ano de faculdade. Quando ela chega em casa ela começa a sentir a pressão pra saber o que fazer sobre seu futuro e como uma forma de escapar ela aceita a posição na biblioteca como voluntária.Lá ela encontra Everett Rockford, o herói da sua história de amor.Na verdade esse livro foi meio que decepcionante. Não focou na parte romântica, eles mal se falam até bem depois da metade do livro e June passa mais tmepo comparando-o com os book boyfriends dela e quando eles finalmente começam a desenvolver uma relação, ela foi meio que apressada e já no final do livro.

I'm completely mesmerized by this series. Each book left me wanting more. I don´t know how Darynda does, but she´s an awesome writer.In this book Charley is amnesiac, she learnt her name which led to an explosion of sorts and she end up in Sleepy Hollow with headless guy and everything.There she struggles to remember who she is, what she doesn't know is that al her family,friends and ghosts are surrounding her. They´re there for her, waiting her memories to come back.She is as sassy as ever, and as infatuated with Reyes as evermore.Though she doesn't remember her past she didn't lose her witty comebacks, which always let me laughing like a lunatic.I cried when her father sacrificed his time on earth with her so she could remember everything. And I was completely stunned when she learnt Reyes was one god as well.Now I have to wait so much time for the next book that makes me wanna cry even more.

Where do I begin? This is the end of an era? No, overused. I think I´ll stick with this is the transition to a new era. The passage rite to another generation.When I started reading Addicted to you, I was giving a chance to a book, which I didn't know nor liked the subject, because I´m not really a fan of characters with addictions. But I was lured in hook, line and sink, since the very first page.I fell in love with LiLo. they´re my favourite couple ever.They overcame so much trouble in their lives, that I think they must be happy for the next five lives.Ryke and Daisy are the couple who had to fight most for their love, because of their age gap, their family or fans didn't believe in them.Unlike Lily and Lo who had to fight internal demons, they had to fight for others to believe in their love. In their compromise to each other. But they have their demons too. And we could see them clearly than ever in Long way down.I loved the epilogue and the fact that they´re still friends even after all those years.I´m so anxious for the Like Us series to be released that I think I´ll die waiting for it.For thos whoo didn´t read the addicted series, I strongly recommend you to read A.S.A.P. and if you are a fan like me, I wish you the best books for you to read until the release date of Damaged like us

I was given this ARC in exchange of an honest review.I don´t know really what to say about this book. It was told in a nice way and fast paced but it raise a lot of questions and doesn't answer not even one.On the bright side is a short story, but it ends on a cliffhanger what means that the whole story could have been told in one book and we would be saved of the wait for the next one so we know WTH is going onI couldn't relate with the characters properly, I think it was to short of a story, or to much information for a short story and no answers at all.

OMG, I don't know how to start this review. I think I´ll begin by thanking Colleen for being such an amazing author, and saying that if it wasn't for her I wouldn't be making my reviews in this blog, right now.If you are asking yourself how is that even possible, I can tell you a short story about how I fell in love with Slammed, which was translated to portuguese awhile ago and that I was so transfixed, amazed and thrilled after reading that book that I couldn't for the life of me wait the next one to be translated, I had to read, immediately. So I started to read in english, it was easier that I thought possible. And from that day, I didn't stopped reading in english and thanks to that I´m now reviewing for netgalley and that´s why this blog was a dream come true and all thanks to Colleen.So, coming back to the book in my table right now. I´ve been waiting for this book for so long that I thought I would die in happiness when I started to read. This book left me weeping like a baby, though I must say I´m not really a fan of Ben right now.It all started with a plot that kind of reminded me One Day.With Ben and Fallon only meeting once a year in November 9 (one doubt, has Colleen chose this date because of 9/11? Does someone know?). The plot flows so easily. Ben and Fallon has a really bad case of insta-love, though Fallon claims to hate books with insta-love. They´re perfect together, their witty banter makes me laugh like a loon and their angsty moments makes me sob like I´m the one having my heart ripped off my chest.*SPOILER ALERT* When Fallon discovered that Ben was with Jordyn, I was comfortably eating a pineapple ice cream and my spoon stopped mid-air while my heart stopped mid-thug, I just couldn't comprehend what a hell of a twist Colleen put it in my life.And when I found out Ben was the one responsible for Fallon´s scars I was a puddle of tears in my living room floor. How? How she does that? I strongly recommend you to read this book alone, or you'll embarrass yourself with your tear-stained face in front of others.

I was given an ARC in exchange of a honest review.I´m so happy I chose this book at netgalley to request, because I chose for the wrong reason, hahaha, but it turned out being a right choice.I chose because of the couple on the cover. I love Obsidian, and I think all the new adults fans knows that the cover couple are the same, and every time I see a book with that couple on the cover I want to read it, hahaha. Oh yeah, color me crazy. But as I said before, I loved this book, so it was all good.Cassie Whitlock has lived in a nightmare for four years, she´s closed off to everything and everyone, even her best friend London.Luca Santoro, is the blip on her radar after all those years of numbness. He is the tall, handsome and dark man, the mother warns their daughters about. And Cassie it is warned to steer clear from him, even from Luca himself.But she can´t seem to stay away, au contraire, she´s drawn to him like a moth to the flame.but Luca has his own reasons to keep Cassie at arm´s length, he´s just as fucked up as Cassie, but while he´s pushing Cassie to open up for him, he´s as closed off as ever. And that tear them apart, and almost send Cassie into darkness and numbness again.I loved this book, Cassie is a broken woman but she keeps going with her life, most for the sake of the people around her who loves her than for herself.And is this love for the others who makes her strong, though fragile.Luca is an asshole at beginning but he redeemed himself through the book. Though I was really mad at him when he kept hiding stuff from Cassie when he was so adamant about her opening up for him, so they could have a chance.
Eu fiquei muito feliz de ter escolhido esse livro no netgalley, pois eu o escolhi pelos motivos errados mas acabou sendo a escolha certa. Eu o escolhi por causa do casal na capa, eu amo Obsidian e acredito que todos os fãs de NA sabem que o casal na capa é o mesmo na capa da série Lux. E toda vez que eu vejo um livro com o mesmo casal na capa eu quero ler, rsrsrs. É, pode me chamar de doida. Mas, como eu disse anteriormente, eu amei o livro, então tudo acabou bem.

I was given an ARC in exxchange of a honest review.As a fan of Sharon Sala work, I must say I felt honored when they accept my request of this ARC in netgalley. And this book was just as awesome as all the other books by Sala.LilyAnn used to be a Southern Belle, but now she´s a woman with no life beyond her job as a cashier at the town´s drugstore because she got caught up in the past.Mike Dalton is in love with Lily Ann since tenth grade, but she could never see beyond her deceased fiancee.11 years has passed and just now LilyAnn is starting to living again, she´s losing weight, taking care of her health and feeling again, after 11 years of watch the life passing by. But she´s doing for the wrong reasons.This book is a life lesson, we can see through LilyAnn´s eyes how we let our lives goes by without thought of all the time we waste in pointless things or persons.LilyAnn starts as a fragile person, but while the story will revealing its plots and twists LilyAnn will revealing her backbone is back. She´s full of life and joy again and standing up for herself.Matt Dalton is the best man for her, but I still think that if he had take the matter at hands they would be together and happy a lot sooner.The story is well written, fast paced, full of plots, twists, intrigue, tension. The characters are tridimensional.Told in various point of view, this book had me hooked from the start till the end.In the end has an excerpt of the next book in the series, and I must say with all certainty that I will die of anxiety waiting for it. I´m already in love with Johnny Pine.Como uma fã do trabalho de Sharon Sala eu tenho que dizer que me senti honrada quando minha solicitação do ARC desse livro foi aceita no netgalley. E este livro foi tão maravilhoso quanto os outros livros dela que li.LilyAnn costumava ser uma bela do sul, mas agora ela é uma melhor sem vida além do trabalho como caixa da farmácia da cidade onde mora, pq ela ficou presa no passado.Mike Dalton é apaixonado por LilyAnn desde o oitavo ano, mas ela nunca conseguiu ver além do seu noivo morto.11 anos se passaram e apenas agora LilyAnn esta´recomeçando a viver. Ela está perdendo peso, cuidando de sua saúde e voltando a sentir depois de todos esses anos deixando a vida passar por entre seus dedos. Mas, ela está fazendo isso pelas razões erradas.Esse livro traz uma lição de vida, nós conseguimos ver através de LilyAnn como nós deixamos a vida nos escapar nos preocupando com coisas ou pessoas inúteis.LilyAnn começa como uma pessoa frágil, mas enquanto a história vai revelando suas tramas e reviravoltas LilyAnn vai se revelando como a pessoa forte que costumava ser antes de deixar a vida lhe escapar. Ela se torna cheia de vida e alegria e não aceita mais levar desaforo pra casa.Matt Dalton é o melhor homem que pode existir para ela, mas ainda acho que se ele tivesse tomado as rédeas dessa situação há mais tempo eles estariam juntos e felizes há muito mais tempo..A história é muito bem escrita, rápida, cheia de tramas, reviravoltas e tensão. Os personagens tem profundidade.Contado em vários pontos de vista, esse livro me prendeu desde o começo até o fim.No fim tem os primeiros capítulos do próximo livros da série e posso dizer com toda a certeza que vou morrer de ansiedade esperando a data de lançamento. Já estou apaixonada pelo Johnny Pine.

Everly Daniels is a too shy girl with a terribly low self esteem. She falls in love with Grayson "Dickson" Dixon and she pines for him for years even when he goes away.When Dickson, oops. When Dixon is back, Everly feels her pull to him isn't diminished, au contraire, is stronger than never.This is her last year of high school and she feels like she needs to be out of her shell so she can live a little. So, she starts to pay more attention to make up, hair and clothes, and she finally give in to her wish to sing.While, she´s doing well with school, friends, new friends, music, her relationship with Grayson makes her feel like she´s in a rollercoaster.He´s constantly pushing her away, and pulling her back.I Was really angry with him for play with her feelings like that, and with her for allowed him to treat her that way.I loved this book, it was beautifully written, I could feel Everly anguish with her, and her pull to Grayson which made feel even more angry with him. And feel sorry for him, he´s a mess, but it wasn't said why he´s a mess. I´ll have to wait for the next book to know. I loved the way the author approached the lesbian situation with Alicia and Lindsay. I think Lindsay also has feelings for Alicia, but she´s too much afraid to let it show.I´m anxious to read the next book and see how Everly´s and her band future will developed, I hope they´ll be the next great band and I also hope that when Everly find Grayson again, he had sorted out his problems.I loved this book so much that I´m not even complainig about the cliffhanger.If you wanna a giveaway of this book you can click the link: https://www.facebook.com/jcahannigan/photos/a.247302365475978.1073741829.227345577471657/425152397690973/?type=1&theater

This book was a big let down.It starts really well and than all goes downhill and that's even worst than a book that´s bad from the beginning. Because it gives you hope and than BAM, the hope is shredded at your feet.Drama queen much? Yeah, a little. But that´s how I felt. I have a ginormous list of books to read and a bigger than ginormous list of books a downloaded to my kindle just because. So, I was reading a lot of beginnings and when I started this one, I thought " Hey, this one, sound nice, I should read it" Oh god, how I regretted.Sienna is a half-brazilian (just an excuse to say she knows how to samba, let me say I´m brazilian and I don´t know nor want to know how to samba) and half-american, she´s living in London. She´s coming from a bad break-up, her ex (Kyle)cheated on her and then she gets involved with Blake, her hot, rich, and handsome brit. But Kyle´s wants her back, and when she doesn't goes back to him, he starts to use drugs so he can be able to forget the pain( OMG, What a loser) but Blake, who seems to be so perfect is just as retarded as Kyle. And, then we have Troy who also has the hots for Sienna. OMG ² her pussy oozes pheromones.And then we have her best gay friend, who is all sassy and witty and out of the blue, he tries to off himself. And the book ends in a cliff, maybe we should thrown all the characters down the cliff, so we are all spared to read the continuation to this terrible soap opera.
